The connection between education and a healthy economy is critical.

I want to talk about jobs and health care and pension security and what we're going to do to stop the brain drain in Ohio and make it possible for our young people to stay here and build a life in Ohio rather than in Pennsylvania or West Virginia or God knows where.

If Mitt Romney was Santa Claus, he would fire the reindeer and outsource the elves.

But all over Ohio - all over America - men and women are going back to work with the pride of building something stamped 'Made in America.'

The connection between education and a healthy economy is critical.

Barack Obama is an economic patriot.

Quite frankly, Barack Obama knows what it's like to pay a mortgage and student loans. He knows what it's like to watch a beloved family member in a medical crisis and worry that treatment is out of reach. Barack Obama knows our struggles. And, my friends, he shares our values.
